welcome
we have two new sites
www.smiths-instruments.com.au
www.vdo-gauges.com.au
with stock you can buy now or backorder.
Please use them if you don't mind.
All the product details on this website are up to date however you will need to request an quote first before making payment.
We've updated all of our pricing.
You can still check with us if you have a part number you can't find.
We're sure we can find you an alternative.
We keep a reasonable level of stock but everything we don't have must come in from overseas with a 4 -10 week lead time.
We like to show people what we have available to us by listing a broad range of items from our major suppliers rather than just what we have in stock.
We also can make custom items given enough forward planning.
We always do our best to help you as quickly as we can but we are getting slower as we get older.
In the meantime....
